I only own 1 duochrome polish. Seriously! What kind of nail art blogger am I?
I don’t t really care for them. Don’t get me wrong, they are pretty and look great on other people. On me, though, they show a very unflatter angle so I generally steer clear of them.
The only duochrome I own is Chanel’s Peridot. I bought it soon after it was released because IT WAS SO FREAKING PRETTY! Then I wore it. It looked awful on me. I rarely wear it but keep it on display.
Funny thing is I am really liking it right now. Maybe it looks better on tan skin? Maybe I changed my mind? That is the interesting thing about duochromes, the same polish always sparks different opinions on any given day.
I hope you like it!
I used 3 coats of Chanel Peridot as my base.
I sugar-spun with Zoya Yara.
Hi, my name is Monica and I have RA.
Don’t forget to check out the other manicures!
I’m not a huge duochrome fan either – I would go so far to say they’re my least favourite type of polish! Love how this look turned out, though. 🙂

Thank you!! I think for me I am attracted to the frosty-toned duo chromes but they never look right on me. I should expand my horizons to some nice dark blue, red or purple ones!

This colour is seriously gorgeous.
I’m the same about duochromes! Precisely.
Always love your sugarspuns ❤

Thank you!! I hear Deborah Lippmann “Swagga Like Us” is a dupe for Peridot. I should look into it since the Chanel Vernis is no longer available.
I want to start saying my signature style is sugar-spins since I love them so so much!
